mitt romney is at exactly the halfway point, 572. that's literally 50% of the amount of delegates that you need to wrap it up. and rick santorum is we behind. gingrich, and run, run paul at 51%. to give you a sense of how disastrous this is for rick santorum, he would have to win 74% of the delegates going forward including tonight. so obviously he can't do it in that way. he is going to have to go to at best a contested convention which of course other republicans are very worried about. >> the longer it goes the better it is for the party. people said go to the convention it will be dangerous. i think it would be an energizing thing for our party to have a candidate emerge who isn't the blessed candidate. >> wrong again bob. the idea that it was a contested convention would be something that would be lovely for either party is -- seems ridiculous! that's why all of these endorsements are reigning down on mitt romney now that they have seen the delegate math. they are like let's wrap this thing up. and of course they are going to ha

are they fronting for romney now? now that the national rifle association took it off his website, it kind of gives romney cover. >> what was interesting the alan west quote that president bush had exactly the same experience. really. do you recall a pied piper like donald trump questioning whether president bush was an american. do you remember anybody equating president bush with islamic terrorists the most hated criminals on the earth and repeatedly casting aspersions on his christian faith, do you recall that? of course you don't? mitt romney can't condemn them because he needs their validation more than their veracity. that's why you will never hear him offer a condemnation you said at the beginning of this segment is the decent right and appropriate thing to do. >> he needs that head shaking crowd because of some of his positions on firearms when he was governor of massachusetts and needs the ted nugent mentality behind him. he can't lose that crowd at all because president obama has not been a gun grabber or so

znn romney, -- ann, this just infuriates me. it was never indicated that being a mother was not work. i have been on both sides of the aisle. i was fortunate enough to be able to stay home with my children for a few years and then circumstances changed and i had to go to work. i was a working mother outside of the home plus a working mother in the home, and believe me there was no comparison. the working mother outside the home was very much harder in every respect. on top of that, ann romney the not clean all of their home, cook all of their meals and she has bonding have that available whether she chose to stay home or whether she chose to go into the workplace. fortunately, -- unfortunately, a lot of the women in this country do not have that benefit. also, on health care, we have had a problem with health care ever since the '70s when nixon turned over the choices for health care to kaiser permanente and let them decide who can be in charge of our health care, who could get health care, and it has just progressed until all i

"the boston globe" went out and found out it wasn't true. we turned the camera on and the workers had talked about what happened to them. look, they don't have an answer to this. they don't have a coherent claim. this guy sometimes says he created ten thousand jobs, sometimes says he created a hundred thousand jobs. sometimes says, well, maybe a hundred thousand. i mean, his communications director said it was a back of the envelope calculation. but, you know, it adds insult to injury in terms of these workers, who are just saying what happened to th
